USC, UNC Clash In Oyster Bowl A few ardent University sup porters will be among the expected 25,000 fans on hand to see the Gamecocks clash with the Univer sity of North Carolina in the ninth annual Shrine Oyster Bowl game in Norfolk tomorrow. The Uni versity band under the dir etion of Donald L. Banschback will also be on hand to add to the festivities. Pre-game activities will start promptly at 12:30. This will be highlighted by the massing of the bands and the playing of the Star Spangled Banner prior to the kickoff. In keeping with the eight previous Oyster Bowl games the Shriners of Khedive Temple, spon sors of the contest, always outdo themselves in staging this annual event. The Melvin T. Blassingham Award, presented yearly by the Norfolk sports club, will be awarded to the outstanding player in the game. South Carolina's Dick Balka was the first recipient, while Navy halfback Bob Craig was presented the trophy last year. South Carolina appeared in the Oyster Bowl game in 1952 and upset the highly favore'd Univer sity of Virginia team, 21-14 in the most exciting of all Khedive Temple-sponsored games.

He is now an inspector, Commanding Detective Bureau. You might say Phillips is a hero, but he Is first of all a working cop, andi as such, he is representa tive of many of the 20,000 in New York City as well as further thousands all over America. In Headquarters, Quentin Rey nolds tells the details of a famous armored car robbery, the dis covery and arrest of Waxie Gor (Ion as head of a multi-million dollar (lope ring, the Sutton case, and many other inside stories straight from Headquarters. But this is also the story of attractive young policewomen against night-time park muggers; of a rookie cop wondering just how much protection he'd get from his shieldl when up against a gang of street fighters; of political riots; of a pinch that had to be madie for the honor of the Force; of (lope p)edd(lers and good men who went wvrong for no apparent reason, and wrong guys who made a dlecent sacrifice in the end. The title is Headquarters be. cause that is the heart of any police operation of any size, but the scope of Reynold's book in cludes every kind of neighborhood. Only these men are volunt.arily doing a tough andl dangerous job, day in and (lay out, and doing It "MANY MOONS" .. . Cast for ti students.

Stricter Traini Is Basic NRO~ A more strict military training program marks basic changes in the University Naval Reserve Of ficers Training Corps unit this year. - A Progressiye Military Training Program for the 200 Midshipmen allows Upperclassmen to train at a more accelerated pace, Major A.
